Losing at home was embarrassing and unacceptable, says Parsons
In a recent interview on “The Edge with Micah Parsons” show, Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons expressed his frustration with the team’s performance during the 2023 season. Parsons highlighted the embarrassment and disappointment of losing games at home, a place that had previously been a source of strength for the team. He admitted that the loss hit him hard, to the point where he couldn’t even show his face in public.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones promises to go “all in” for 2024 season
The disappointment of the 2023 season has prompted Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones to declare that the team will go “all in” for the upcoming 2024 season. Jones emphasized the importance of addressing key contracts and acquiring the necessary talent to improve the team’s performance. The statement seemed to align with Parsons’ hopes for the team, as he expressed his desire for the Cowboys to challenge themselves and become better.
Parsons calls out defensive coaching staff and lack of talent
During the interview, Parsons didn’t shy away from criticizing the Cowboys’ defensive coaching staff and the team’s lack of talent in certain areas. He voiced his concerns about being outperformed and outschemed by opponents, suggesting that the coaching staff didn’t always put him in the best position to succeed. Parsons also highlighted the importance of acquiring the missing players needed to strengthen the team.
Defensive coordinator Dan Quinn departs for Washington Commanders
Parsons’ remarks came just a day before it was reported that the Cowboys’ defensive coordinator, Dan Quinn, had accepted the head coaching position with the Washington Commanders. Quinn had played a significant role in building the Cowboys’ defense into one of the best in the NFL, and Parsons had thrived under his guidance. Parsons finished the 2023 season with a career-best 14 sacks, although he failed to register any sacks in the playoff game against the Green Bay Packers.
It remains to be seen how the Dallas Cowboys will address the issues highlighted by Parsons and whether they can bounce back in the upcoming 2024 season. Fans will be eagerly watching as the team makes changes and prepares for a fresh start.
